Friday!

Proverbs!

My son, don't let them slip from your eyes; 

hold on to sound judgment and discretion.

...

Don't fear sudden terror or the ruin that comes to the wicked.

The LORD will be your confidence; 

he will guard your feet from being snared.  

Proverbs 3:21, 25-26 CEB

When we hold on to who our God is, that there is a Bigger Story that we're in, that there is evil in the world, that people and systems aren't always for us, but our God is, that when we overlay what Jesus did - preparing a place for us - then fear doesn't need to overwhelm us. 

We can keep our fears in check.

Because the "ruin" that comes, whatever that looks like, the loss, the heartache, the hurt, is not permanent, is not the end, is not all that there is. 

We don't have to be snared, but can find a way through when we hold to the Truth:

We are Beloved.

All will be made new.

In this world we will have trouble, but we can cling to the One who has Overcome on our behalf. 

We need these reminders scattered in different ways thru scripture, to "hold on to sound judgment", hold on to what is True, not to let that "slip from our eyes".

Hold on.

We're in this together.
